Dorothy Quote #1272

Quote from Dorothy in The Commitments

Dorothy: I'm stunned. I'm- I'm completely stunned.
Rose: Dorothy, what's wrong? How was Don's debut?
Dorothy: A disaster. What can you say about a show by an ex-fake-Beatle that began with I've Got to Be Me and ended with Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting? What the hell was that man doing up there?
Rose: Was it as bad as that?
Dorothy: Had it been a fight, they would've stopped it.
Rose: Did he do any of his own material?
Dorothy: Oh, he did his own material, all right. A Tribute to Dorothy. "Dot, Dot, what a girl I got." The last words I heard as I sprinted to my car were, "When we shower together, we don't have to turn on hot."
